    Your motherboard (the largest component in your computer that every other component is connected to) has something called a BIOS (stands for basic input/output system, but that's not important), which is basically software that loads a boot loader (another piece of software that comes with your operating system that gets installed on your hard drive). The computer turns on, the BIOS gets loaded, it finds the boot loader on the hard disk, the boot loader gets loaded and fetches the operating system which then loads.

    The problem you described could be the result of an outdated BIOS, which can be upgraded by visiting the website of of your mobo (motherboard) manufacturer.
